So on Friday I was driving my car calmly and I shifted from 2nd to 5th and stalled it out. I went to start it up and the engine(B18C) was just turning over, I noticed I wasn't hearing the fuel pump anymore, I'm not even certain the ECU is working either. I checked all fuses and everything looked fine, I checked out wiring and that all seemed okay(nothing broken that I could tell). The relay that goes to the pump(a Bosch 044 under the hood) had power at 4 of the 5 posts and was clicking so I believe that's fine, I should have jumped some power to see if that would do anything and should have connected my laptop to the ECU(I have Hondata in my CRX) and see if it was detecting it. I'm just baffled that something could short out from just stalling it out really. Perhaps I shook something hard when it stalled and that is causing a short or grounded out wire...
MM&Y of car, Honda/Acura fuel pump relays, [PGM-FI Main Relay] is under the dash.
The PGM-FI Main Relays are a common problem on older Honda/Acura and are repairable with a little re-soldering most of the time, search main relay repair. 94

Thanks for the responses. I finally got around to looking at it again and all wiring appears to be good. I jumped power to the pump and it was running so I don't think anything is shorted. I'm guessing it's the main relay causing the problem here. I'll try to get to it this Saturday and report back.
